“I’m
arresting you for breaking my heart.” Troy confidently said to Voujhan as
the handsome blonde turned to him avoiding his eyes. “You
didn’t even try to hear me…” Troy added. “But I forgive
you for that.” Troy walked near him. “Just try not to runaway so
often.”

“I shall
leave you two alone so you could talk.” Ryll stood up and went to tap
Troy’s back wishing him luck. “You two talk so that you’ll
understand each other and please no crying. It frustrates me seeing two people
cry inside my house.”

“Thanks
cousin.” Troy glance at Ryll for a while then back at Voujhan who is crying
now. As soon as he saw him sobbing, he wanted to rush to him and embrace him
with his hands, but he forced himself not to. “Hey, Ryll said no
crying.” He said in a soft voice.

“It’s
your fault.” Voujhan answered still sobbing. “You’re hurting
me too much.” Then he covered his face with his hands. It was when he
felt Troy’s hand embraced him.

“I
didn’t mean to hurt you like that babe.” Troy whispered as Voujhan
leaned on his chest. “I just don’t know how to feel when you
left.” He then kissed Voujhan’s forehead. “And then
everything happened in a flash. I didn’t like what happened either, but I
was too drunk to resist. Please don’t do that again, huh, babe.
Don’t go away like that, because you’ll be hurting me too
much.” Troy added

“I was just
afraid of what you will feel if you learned about me and my life.”
Voujhan is still sobbing while in Troy’s arm. “I don’t
want you to be angry with me.”

Troy smiled like
he had never smiled before. Now he knew why his Voujhan runaway. He was afraid
how Troy would react knowing he was engaged. And Troy understood him well. He
would also feel afraid if he is in Voujhan’s position. “It is okay
babe, I’m not angry.” Troy told him while rubbing his back.
“What’s important now is that you are here with me.”

“But I am
engaged Troy. I know that you knew about it, my parents probably have told
you.” Voujhan broke their hug and turned around making his back face
Troy. “And the only solution I have to these things is running
away.”

Troy hugged him again.
Now Troy put his head on Voujhan’s shoulder slightly kissing him on the
checks. “I’m here with you, so you need not to runaway.”

“Promise.”
Voujhan answered. And then they both sealed that promise with a passionate
kiss.

“Do you
have a plan?” Voujhan asked him. Both of them were standing, looking at
the roses. Troy’s hand is wrapped around Voujhan’s hips. “I
mean about stopping my engagement.”

“Nope, I
don’t have a plan yet.” Troy answered. “But you can just meet
the guy first and try going out with him to buy me some time to think.”

Voujhan pushed
Troy back after he told that. “And I thought you loved me. Now you are
giving me away.”

“Come on
babe.” Troy tried to hug him again but Voujhan refused and continued
backing out. “I was just joking.”

“I
wasn’t.” Voujhan answered. “Forget it!” Voujhan was
again bursting in anger. After everything that just happened, Troy is now
suggesting that he meet his ‘so called fiancée’. He kinda
felt rejected.

Three days have
passed after he had conversation with Troy and he hadn’t heard anything
from him since. It was when he insisted to make his engagement to be setup
sooner. And it was set tomorrow. He expects Troy to be there and grab him
away from there and they will live happily ever after. Troy can’t just
leave him like that. He knew how much Troy loved him.

“Excited
for your day tomorrow, little brother?” Diana asked him as they went
shopping.

“I never
thought about that.” He answered. “But I know he’ll get over
it, it’s not like his in love with me.”

The day came and
he had not heard anything from Troy yet. Maybe he was just dreaming that Troy
would rescue him. He felt a little ache while thinking about it. What if Troy would
not be there? He would get stuck with Loui whom he doesn’t even know.

“Don’t
you dare not show up Troy?”

The party would
be held on the front of their mansion. It was six in the evening and the party
is ready. Most of their friends and visitors are already there. All he is
waiting for is his fiancee and his beloved Troy. He just wished Troy was there
with him. He also secretly wished that he’s fiancee wouldn’t be
there but what happened was the other way. Troy hadn’t showed up and his
fiancee was already waiting for him.

“Honey,
he’s at the pool.” Alicia told him. “He asked for some quiet
place so I told him to go there. Why don’t you go talk to him, so that
you’ll get to know each other?”

“Yeah
sure.” Voujhan answered. He doesn’t what to go yet a part of him
wants to see the guy. He was afraid but he’s feet continued walking until
he arrived at the pool. He saw someone sitting on a chair near the pool,
drinking. The guy is was in black and he looks sexy even if Voujhan can’t
see his face. Voujhan advance an little then all his courage left him, that he
turned around and started going back.

“Don’t
you get tired of running away?” a voice told him. Even if he
doesn’t see the source, he perfectly knew who owns it. Only one person
owns that voice which made him tremble and fall.

“Troy?”
He turned and face the guy.

Troy smiled at
him the way he always does, boyish and sexy.

“You came
to save me.” Voujhan hugged him like he would never want to be separated
anymore.

“You
can’t runaway from love; all you can do is embrace it.” Troy told
him then grabbed him into his arms. The guy put something on his neck. When he
turned to look at it, he saw the same necklace that he discarded last time.

Voujhan hold the
pendant then a drop of tear escaped from his eyes. “You found it.”
He said.

“Of course,
because it was meant to be yours, I was meant to be your.” Troy wiped the
tears and hugged him tightly. “This is the key to my heart, so
don’t you lose it again or I’ll punish you.”

“I’m
done with it for a while.” Ryll answered . “Back to the
topic.” He added. “At first I meet this sweet young man crying somewhere
near the school you were in. Remember the day you told me to come and meet
him.”

“Yeah!”
Troy answered. “That was the saddest day of my life.” Then he
looked at Voujhan. “It was when you left.”

“Voujhan
and I actually met and then I was attracted to him. You can’t blame me,
he’s hot. Then, the second time I met him is in a bar, and I kind of
recognise the necklace you gave him.”

“This,”
Voujhan held the necklace’s pendant.

“That is a
family heirloom.” Ryll looked at Voujhan. “So I researched about
you and I planned the whole idea of the two lovers meeting in my house. Kinda
cool right?”

“Thanks
cousin.” Troy hugged his cousin.

“Anyway, if
the two of you have any conflicts just call me and I’ll go flying here
from England to reconcile you.”

“You’re
going back to England?” Troy asked.

“Yes…
And I’m selling the mansion, so I’ll get going since my buyer is in
this party.” Ryll said. “I invited him, since his kinda hot.”
Ryll turned around and saw the person he was looking. “Good luck to the
both of you.”

“You’re
very welcome. And wish me luck.” Ryll went to the hot buyer he was
talking about.

“Good
luck!” The two of them told him as he goes.

“Everybody
is asleep already, except for the two of us.” Voujhan teased Troy. They
are sitting near the swimming pool. The same spot where they both meet before
the party. Both of them are holding a glass of punch. It was already three
hours after the party ended, and it was near 2 am.

“What are
you suggesting babe?” Troy acted as if he didn’t know what Voujhan
was saying.

Voujhan stood up
and pulling Troy’s polo so that he stood up. “I’ suggest
that…” Voujhan then kissed Troy’s lips.

“I see what
you mean.” Troy answered. “You want us to do it right here.”

“I want us
to go swimming, silly.” Voujhan answered.

“Swimming.”
Voujhan giggled as Troy caught him in his embrace. “We shall.” Then
he brought the two of them on the water. In the water they kissed and hugged,
and kissed to their hearts content.

“I think
it’s time for your punishment.” Troy told Voujhan as they got out
of the pool.

“Let’s
go then.” Voujhan started to walk inside the house but Troy got hold of
his hand.

“Let’s
do it here under the moon.” Troy told him. “And under the stars.
Let them be witnesses to our love.”

“But…”
Voujhan resisted but a kiss on the lips was all it takes to convince him.

Voujhan wrapped
his hand on Troy’s neck as they share the sweetest kiss of their life.
“I love you…” Troy told him.

“I love you
too,” Voujhan answered back.

And that is when
they made love until morning. With the moon and the stars watching.

It’s funny
how many times I ran away from you, yet you always caught me.” Voujhan
told Troy as he was leaning on Troy’s shoulder on the front seat of his
sports car. They were star gazing. It is their first anniversary. They plan to
celebrate in a high place where they can perfectly see the meteor shower that
would be showing tonight.

“As I told
you once, you cannot runaway from love; all you can do is embrace it.”
Troy answered combing Voujhan’s hair.

“And it was
the happiest day of my life when I learned not to runaway anymore. You taught
me how to face my fears by being with me always. Thank you Troy.” Voujhan
told him and kissed his cheek.

“I did it
because I love you, and I’ll always be with you.” Troy answered.
“Just promise me you’ll never runaway from me again.”

“I
promise.” Voujhan answered as they sealed their promise with a passionate
kiss. Together with their kiss, the meteor shower started. They were fascinated
by it.

“Let’s
go home.” Troy said as the shower ended.

“Yeah!”
Voujhan affirmed. They drove to the place they call home with the promise to
never be parted forever.
